Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The scientist will develop software analysis tools for powder diffraction instruments and support the user community with data reduction, modeling, and experimental needs. They will also pursue a personal research program using neutron diffraction and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to enhance instrument capabilities.
Candidates must hold a PhD in physics, chemistry, materials science, engineering, or a related field with at least two years of post-doctoral research experience. A demonstrated track record in scientific software development is required, along with the ability to obtain federal security clearance.
Requisition Id 16946
Overview:
We are seeking a Computational Instrument Scientist who will focus on developing software analysis tools for the powder diffraction instruments. This position resides in the Powder Diffraction Group in the Diffraction Section, Neutron Scattering Division, Neutron Sciences Directorate at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).
Applications are sought from highly creative and motivated individuals with demonstrated skills/experience in method development who will join the interdisciplinary team of instrument scientists that support the HB-2A MIDAS and HB-2C WAND2 instruments at the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) and the BL-1B NOMAD and BL-11A POWGEN instruments at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS). Additional information and specifications for these instruments may be found on the following ORNL Neutron Sciences website: https://neutrons.ornl.gov/suites/diffraction
As part of our research team, you will emphasize developing software analysis tools for multi-dimensional data analysis, real-time data visualization, modelling for disordered systems, or improved automation, that are applicable across the instruments in the suite. As part of your career, you will have opportunities to use other neutron scattering instruments at SNS and HFIR to pursue your scientific interests.
